Embodiment Construction

[0020]Throughout this specification and the claims that follow, when it is described that an element is “coupled” to another element, the element may be “directly coupled” to the other element or “electrically coupled” to the other element through a third element. In addition, unless explicitly described to the contrary, the word “comprise” or variations such as “comprises” or “comprising” will be understood to imply the inclusion of stated elements but not the exclusion of any other elements.

[0021]As shown in FIG. 1, the hybrid electric vehicle system according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes a battery management system (BMS) 1, a battery 2, a current sensor 3, a cooling fan 4, a fuse 5, a main switch 6, a motor control unit (MTCU) 7, an inverter 8, and a motor generator 9.

[0022]The battery 2 includes a plurality of sub-packs 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f, 2g, 2h, each having a plurality of battery cells coupled in series to each other, an output terminal 2_OUT1, a...

Abstract

A sensing and control apparatus for a battery management system is provided. The sensing and control apparatus includes: a sensing unit and a main control unit. The sensing unit includes: a cell relay of a plurality of cell relays and a voltage detection unit. The cell relay is configured to be coupled to at least one of a plurality of cells. The voltage detection unit is coupled to a cell relay. The voltage detection unit is configured to: receive a reference voltage when each of the plurality of cell relays is turned off; and generate a second voltage by amplifying by a gain a first voltage that corresponds to the reference voltage. The main control unit is configured to calculate a valid gain corresponding to a ratio of the second voltage to the reference voltage when the temperature of the voltage detection unit is within a threshold temperature range.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2006-0100471 filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Oct. 16, 2006, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a battery management system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a battery management system that can be used in a vehicle and a driving method thereof.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Vehicles using an internal combustion engine of gasoline or heavy oil have caused serious air pollution. Accordingly, various efforts for developing electric or hybrid vehicles have recently been made to reduce air pollution.[0006]An electric vehicle uses a battery motor operating by electrical energy output via a battery. Since the electric vehicle mainly uses a battery formed of one battery pack that inclu...
